Quote of the Day: C.S. Lewis

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

About Me

I am a fifty-something year old father of three who has been happily married for 25 years. I am interested in money management, and software development. I've been a steady investor for all of my life and have typically been successful when I've followed my own instincts, and been less successful when following the advice of others. Some of the people I look up to in the investment world are Warren Buffett, John Templeton and Jack Bogle.
